I love my camelbak water bottle. It changed my life! That may sound dramatic, but it really did because it helps me drink more water. I've heard the average person drinks 25% more water when drinking from a Camelbak compared to a regular water bottle. When I drink more water, I have more energy and feel better all around. As simple as it is, I think drinking water is one of the best, cheapest and easiest ways to improve your health.
The only problem with the Camelbak is the mouthpiece can get kinda nasty, which is why I want to share my method for cleaning the mouthpiece. And no, it doesn't require a $13 cleaning kit!
You'll need a lighter, Q-tip, and cheap toothbrush. I used a free one from a hotel.
Use the lighter to heat the plastic for a few seconds. When the plastic is hot, push the blue end down on a hard surface in order to bend the toothbrush. This enables you to use the bristles to clean the top of the mouthpiece.
Squirt a little dish soap on your toothbrush and scrub the inside of the mouthpiece. Then use the Q-tip to swab out the inside of the water bottle lid that the mouthpiece sits on.
Many people say to drink 8 glasses of water a day, but how much is 8 glasses? Here is a better formula:
body weight in pounds/2 = fl oz you should drink a day
